A NEW ERA 🌅
——————————————————————————
- I wasn’t planning on making too many signings for the first-team in this save but seeing that my job was on the line, I didn’t really have a choice 🤷🏻‍♂️
- The lack of Champions League football was a bit of a stumbling block as players like Sergej Milinković-Savić & Rúben Dias weren’t even interested in negotiating with us at all. This made me panic a little as I was worried that I wouldn’t be able to strengthen the squad so it might have led to a few impulse purchases during the window 🙂
- Jadon Sancho’s £97 million release clause was triggered & he should solve the issues we had out wide 💡
- We needed a proper CDM & the ever-reliable Florentino Luís was available so I went with him 🧱
- Nicolò Zaniolo is fairly versatile but my plan is to use him in midfield along with Fernandes & Luís ⚠️
- AC Milan were looking to offload Donnarumma as he entered the final year of his contract so I snapped him up. He’s the perfect long-term replacement for De Gea in my eyes & he’ll also be Italy’s no.1 for years to come which is a bonus. Jan Oblak was transfer-listed too but Atletico’s asking price of £87 million was just way too much 🙅🏻‍♂️
- We needed a left-footed centre-back as we didn’t have any in our squad so I was happy to sign Abdou Diallo on the cheap from PSG ✍🏼
- Pierluigi Gollini returns to the club as a backup keeper to replace the outgoing Sergio Romero 🧤
- Dutch U19 international Dirk Proper was available as a free agent so I’ve snapped him up for our youth team. He has decent potential & I’ll definitely give him minutes in the first-team 🕗

⚽️ Robert Lewandowski is the first player to score 30 goals in Europe's top five leagues this season. 🎯 Thomas Muller is the first player to provide 20 assists in Europe's top five leagues this season.

Solskjaer: "We have been looking forward to these games for a very long time. The first game is in two weeks from today, so we have to step up training and get our game back.
Everyone knows we have to be at our best. We know this is a big game for everyone. We played Chelsea to start the season, so I'm sure our players can tackle this game with that same mentality. "

Manchester United have begun talks to sign Ajax's Donny van de Beek this week, and are trying to hijack Real Madrid's move for the player.
Ajax are becoming impatient with Real Madrid and are open to selling Donny van de Beek to #mufc if they receive a good price. The player wants his future to be decided.

There are several reasons why Donny van de Beek to Man United is realistic. Ed Woodward has a good relationship with Ajax's CEO Edwin van der Sar due to his history with Manchester United. [Source: De Telegraaf]

Manchester United have renewed their interest in Donny van de Beek and are weighing up a bid. Real Madrid have agreed an outlined €55m deal with Ajax but the coronavirus pandemic has left the player uncertain whether Real can sign him this summer.
United looked into signing Donny van de Beek in August, but are seriously examining him again. Ed Woodward may desire a deal closer to the €40m mark.

What’s your prediction for this season’s Top 4 in the Premier League?😁

I actually think we’ll finish 3rd (!!) with Liverpool and Man City above us. Leicester 4th and Chelsea to miss out on the Champions League unless Man City’s ban is upheld.
